Gauze dressings, bioengineered skin, alginates, negative pressure devices, cellular growth factors, hydrogels, antimicrobial dressings — all of these products (and more) represent the practice of wound management for the entire spectrum of wound types and severities.

Gauze dressings, bioengineered skin, alginates, negative pressure devices, cellular growth factors, hydrogels, antimicrobial dressings — all of these products (and more) represent the practice of wound management for the entire spectrum of wound types and severities.

Practice patterns, regulatory requirements, price pressures, healthcare delivery system gatekeepers, demographics, cultural sensitivities — all of these represent a sampling of the different forces that dictate the size and outlook of the markets for different wound management products in global markets.

It’s no surprise, then, that product sales are growing (or declining) at different rates in different regions of the world, but the data is clear on this. MedMarket Diligence researched and published this data in its global wound management market Report #S249, which details the clinical practice of wound management, the products on the market and in development, the current and forecast markets for each worldwide and regionally and the competitors vying for market presence now and in the future. Research from primary and secondary sources, the global wound market data illustrated above (which is also detailed by country) and presented in Report #S249 is a compelling read for market participants.

I serve the interests of medical technology company decision-makers, venture-capitalists, and others with interests in medtech producing worldwide analyses of medical technology markets for my audience of mostly medical technology companies (but also rapidly growing audience of biotech, VC, and other healthcare decision-makers). I have a small staff and go to my industry insiders (or find new ones as needed) to produce detailed, reality-grounded analyses of current and potential markets and opportunities. I am principally interested in those core clinical applications served by medical devices, which are expanding to include biomaterials, drug-device hybrids and other non-device technologies either competing head-on with devices or being integrated with devices in product development. The effort and pain of making every analysis global in scope is rewarded by my audience's loyalty, since in the vast majority of cases they too have global scope in their businesses.Specialties: Business analysis through syndicated reports, and select custom engagements, on medical technology applications and markets in general/abdominal/thoracic surgery, interventional cardiology, cardiothoracic surgery, patient monitoring/management, wound management, cell therapy, tissue engineering, gene therapy, nanotechnology, and others.
